YOUR STORY
Are you completely happy with all aspects of your life, in this moment?
If so, please continue whatever you are doing, and share your secret with everyone you meet . . .
If not, then what do you think is holding you back, or keeping you stuck?
Somewhere down the line, have you sacrificed your happiness for a career, a relationship or family values that don't match your inner reality?
Have you absorbed messages from society and culture about who you 'should' be and how you 'should' behave?
Do you feel uneasy, vaguely anxious, uncomfortable and disappointed, even though everything on the outside seems, you know, 'fine'?
From all the books I have read, meditations I have done, and teachers I have studied with, I have found that the only way off this slippery slope is to find our way back to our Deepest Truths;
Who Am I?
What Do I Really Want? (No, I mean REALLY?!)
Why Am I Here?
The only way to come back into alignment with our whole and happy selves, is to find the true grit of our unapologetic and unique INTEGRITY.
Martha Beck explains it like this...
"Integrity is the cure for unhappiness. Period.
Of all the strategies and skills I have learned, the ones that actually work are those that help people see where they've abandoned their own deep sense of truth and followed some other set of directives.
This split from integrity is almost always unconscious.
There's a way out of suffering and into levels of joy and purpose you may not yet realise are possible.
I call it the Way of Integrity.
At the deepest level, you know what makes you happy and how to create your best possible life. That knowledge is coded into your very nature.
But your nature is forever colliding with a force that can tear it apart: culture . . .
In the rush to conform, we often end up ignoring or over-ruling our genuine feelings to please our cultures . . .
But there's just one catch: nature does not give up without a fight.
Emotionally, we feel grumpy, sad, or numb.
Physically, our immune systems and muscles weaken, our energy flattens.
Mentally, we lose focus and clarity.
That's how it feels to be out of integrity."

The pathway to stepping into your full integrity is to find all the hidden places in your unconscious mind, behaviours and patterns, where family, peers, school, society and culture have shaped the younger version of you and clipped your wings.
We all have these inner voices telling us how and why we 'should' be a certain version of ourselves. Buried in the subconscious mind, they are like out-dated software on a computer! But there are safe ways to find them, recognise them, honour them, bring them into the light and gracefully let that sh*t go. Seriously, it's time!!
This is the purpose and power of LIFE COACHING.
The process of coaching slowly uncovers layers of the onion, to reveal what is really happening, the clues are in what feels uncomfortable and where you are getting tied up in knots - and here's the thing . . .
Your coach will not judge, advise, fix or tell you what to do.
Why?
Because that doesn't work.
We only really make big shifts in our outer world when we can shift something important in our inner world so that we come into full alignment with our integrity.
As Martha Beck says . . .
it's the ONLY WAY.
